Luo almost never cultivated. All she had been doing over the years was nurturing medicinal herbs. After all, she did not like fighting, which was also the reason why she had remained at this level for so many years.
Since she was stuck in the Blood Spirit Secret Realm, what was the use of having a high cultivation level?
It would be better to cultivate natural treasures for the Holy Herb Valley.
Seeing that Luo was about to be knocked down, Ye Chen could no longer ignore the situation. His true qi flowed out and he reached out to grab Luo. With a gentle pull, Luo fell into Ye Chenâs arms.
Feeling herself against Ye Chenâs chest, Luoâs fair face turned red.
âMiss Luo, are you alright?â
Luo glanced at Ye Chen and nodded. âIâm okay. Letâs ignore them. Letâs go.â
At this moment, Fang Yuan pointed her sword at Ye Chen and Luo with interest. She sneered, âWhat a pair of lovebirds. Theyâre so sweet even in the Holy Herb Valley. It seems like your master is getting old and has misjudged you.â
âFang Yuan!â Luo was so angry that she drew her sword and cursed, âArenât you going too far?!â
âDo you really think you can do whatever you want just because you have an elder backing you? I havenât offended you all these years, have I? I donât want to hurt you, so move aside!â
Fang Yuan and the women around her seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, and they burst out laughing.
âDid I mishear you? You want to hurt me? Do you think that a useless medicinal herb farmer like you is qualified to hurt me?â
âForget it, I wonât make things difficult for you, butâŠâ
Fang Yuan changed the topic. She knew that the two of them would see each other often. It would not be good if they went overboard.
After all, Luoâs master loved her dearly.
If it was no for the fact that Luoâs master was in seclusion, she would not be able to bully Luo like this.
Her gaze fell on Ye Chen and she said, âKid, I wonât make it difficult for you. If you want to enter the Holy Herb Valley, you can. However, you must cut off the thing that makes you a man. This is also for the sake of our junior sisters. Do you have any objections?â
Fang Yuan could not sense Ye Chenâs cultivation level, but since he was with Luo, he was probably one of those useless people who played around with medicinal herbs.
Toward this kind of person, she only had pity and disdain in her heart.
Ye Chen had not wanted to interfere in their conflict, but Fang Yuanâs words had completely infuriated him.
He did not ask to come to the Holy Herb Valley. Had it not been for Luo, he would not have bothered with this place. Seeing this woman, who had nothing to do with him, spouting nonsense in an unquestionable and arrogant tone, pissed him off.
Luoâs expression changed slightly. Just as she was about to say something, Ye Chen took a step forward and stood in front of Luo. Then, he said, âHas anyone ever told you that you need to be slapped?â
âWhat?â Fang Yuan was stunned.
At this moment, Fang Yuan and the others, including Luo, could barely react.
This was simply a provocation!
Luoâs heart skipped a beat, as she knew very well that Ye Chen had made things even more troublesome!
Based on Fang Yuanâs personality, she would naturally not let the matter rest. As expected, when Fang Yuan heard Ye Chenâs words, her face darkened completely and her aura soared.
âYou lowly man, do you really think that the Holy Herb Valley is the same as the outside world?!â How dare you insult me!â
âLooks like you wonât feel regret until you see your coffin! Take this guy down!â
Her killing intent was instantly released!
The three cultivators beside Fang Yuan moved and instantly appeared beside Ye Chen.
They swung their swords, aiming for Ye Chenâs vitals. One of them even aimed her sword toward Ye Chenâs lower body!
They did not hold back at all!
Luo had not wanted things to develop in this direction. Her expression changed drastically and she started to move toward Ye Chen, but suddenly realized that two cultivators had appeared beside her.
An invisible spiritual pressure enveloped her.
âRelease me! Mr. Ye is very important to my master. If she finds out that youâve treated him like this, Iâm sure that youâll all be expelled from the Holy Herb Valley!â
The two cultivators merely smiled. They obviously did not believe Luoâs words.
Luoâs master hated men the most, so why would this man be an exception?
âJunior Sister Luo, this is the sectâs rule. No one can change it. Besides, this man has offended Senior Sister Fang, so he is only getting what he deserves.â
âJunior Sister Luo, stop struggling. Thereâs nothing you can do.â
Luo struggled desperately, but it was futile.
This feeling was too unbearable!
âMr. Ye, be careful!â
Seeing the swords about to land, she subconsciously covered her mouth.
Although she did not know Ye Chenâs cultivation level, the cultivators who attacked Ye Chen were origin realm experts or stronger!
Furthermore, they were aiming for his vitals right off the bat!
Even if Ye Chen had broken through a few times in the cave, it would still not be enough, right?
Luoâs panic did not affect Ye Chen at all. Seeing the incoming swords, he did not even bother drawing his weapon.
Although his cultivation foundation had not stabilized after his breakthrough, he was still as strong as most Daoyuan realm experts.
It was simply laughable that these trashy cultivators were trying to hurt him.
Ye Chen placed his hands behind his back and stood still like an immovable mountain!
From the perspective of others, it was as if he had given up on resisting.
When Fang Yuan saw this scene, she sneered in her heart. At the same time, she said, âTrash will always be trash. Trash species like men should not exist in the first place! Youâre not qualified to enter the Holy Herb Valley, and your presence here pollutes the surroundings!â
However, as soon as she finished speaking, he realized that a reddish lightning energy was overflowing from Ye Chenâs body. The lightning energy then transformed into a pair of big hands that grabbed the incoming swords!
âKacha!
The swords shattered on the spot!
âGet lost!â
Ye Chenâs eyes gleamed coldly as his aura erupted, causing shockwaves to sweep out in all directions. None of the female cultivators attacking him could withstand them, and they spat out mouthfuls of blood as they were sent flying.
Their bodies smashed into the ground, and they lost the ability to fight. No one had expected Ye Chen to crush his opponents without even lifting a finger.
